 Welcome! At this time, my studio is full.  I have no openings.  If you are interested in being on my waiting list, please fill out the registration form.  Thank you! 

 Feel free to browse this website for my policies, background, and goals for my students.   I teach piano, voice, beginning saxophone, and theory/composition.  I live in the Fredericksburg, Virginia off of Route 17 South (before Route 2).   

Music is a wonderful medium. We were created to be music makers in all walks of life!  Music is also a craft that deserves diligence and practice.  With a little work, music can be a wonderful inspiration that will last your whole life long.

 My philosophy :

I believe in a well-rounded music education.  This includes sight-reading, ear-training, and theory as well as the songs learned each week.  I emphasize note-reading and not playing by ear.  Although the ability to play by ear is a great help, it puts a cap on music potential if one cannot read the language of music.  For younger music students I employ music flash cards as well as extra coloring sheets to reinforce music.  I also have a composer of the month club.  As one of my degrees is in composition, I strongly encourage students to write their own music!

I offer at least one recital opportunity a year, as well as a studio-recording opportunity for my voice students.  Piano students may also opt to play for a judge in the National Federation of Piano Teachers organization. 

 When the toys of childhood are gone, the gift of MUSIC will live on!
